Sarah-Jane Riddell

Collaborative Lawyer & Mediator

Sarah has specialised in family law for over 20 years.  She is a collaborative lawyer and an accredited family mediator. Sarah is sensitive to the life-changing upheaval often caused by separation for families, especially for children. She sees her role as providing clients with clarity as to their options and in supporting and guiding them through what can be an overwhelming time in their lives. Her hope for all clients is that they will feel empowered through whichever process they choose, to make realistic, positive and lasting plans for the future.

Sarah works with clients to find the best option to meet their particular needs recognising that every family is different. She promotes non-adversarial ways of resolving family situations by working collaboratively with clients and professional colleagues including family consultants and collaboratively trained financial advisers appreciating the value of their expertise in helping clients to find the right solution for their families.

She is a member of Resolution, the Law Society, Brightpod and Lawyers Who Mediate. She has recently undertaken training in hybrid mediation which enables lawyers to become more actively involved in the mediation process where clients would find this added support helpful.

Outside work Sarah enjoys spending time with her family, music, outdoor swimming, travelling and learning languages and speaks French.
